Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation (IASTM)
15 CPD points
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation (IASTM) is a powerful technique that uses rigid tools to mobilise soft tissue, reducing scar tissue, relieving pain, and improving range of motion (ROM) and function. This non-invasive treatment helps start the healing process by activating fibroblasts and enhancing tissue remodelling.
Why Choose IASTM for Soft Tissue Mobilisation?
IASTM is highly effective for therapists working with both acute and chronic injuries. The tools provide the clinician with a means to sense and understand the quality of a client’s presenting soft tissue. This improves treatment outcomes by allowing for:
- Pain reduction
- Scar tissue reduction
- Increased range of motion and function
Additionally, the tools reduce strain on the therapist’s hands, prolonging their manual therapy career while improving the quality of treatments provided.
How IASTM Works
IASTM uses specialised tools to apply controlled pressure on soft tissues, helping to break down scar tissue, adhesions, and fascial restrictions. The technique stimulates collagen re-modeling, promoting the formation of healthier tissue. It also enhances blood flow, reduces pain through neurophysiological effects, and improves tissue mobility and flexibility. IASTM helps restore function and alleviate pain by encouraging tissue repair and reducing stiffness.
